Almost done…. WIP ⚠️
“George stroumboulopoulos, Jimothy and me, seesawing on a hotdog 🌭 “

Though on the surface this is just a silly painting, it’s much deeper than it appears.
When I’m finished I’ll explain it. 😉
In the meantime, just enjoy the silly painting I’m working on.

These two city workers from the Sea Animals
With Jobs series are off to new homes. 🎉

First up
Fresh from the secretary pool, it’s…. 🥁

Karen from Finance. Karen knows everything about everyone’s business, and has no problem
embellishing the dull bits with an effortless wave of a whisker. Why Karen can spice up any event,
Just give her a glass of Chardonnay at the next staff function!
Karen comes with her very own fax machine! Don’t you even think about touching her dot paper!

And next on the way to a new home
Is our charismatic, soul singing, home cooking,
Sous chef Barry. With a personality larger than his body, and a voice deeper than the ocean,
Pull up a chair and hear the yarns spun by Sea City’s best chef and story teller.

I decided to do Baroque portraits because I’m “broke” and it’s a play on words.
Also the Baroque period is (somewhat ironically) the most decadent (and wasteful) era in modern western times. Think Marie Antoinette. The whole point was to show off obscene wealth (or pretend you have obscene wealth) and boast to neighbours and secure a prosperous union through marriage. Invitation Balls, ritual greetings and courtship and the of course the over the top marriages; the pomp and extravagant clothing, tiny w**e glasses, lace for days and powdered wigs. Ridiculous and somehow wonderful at the same time.
So, if you were wondering why, that’s my thought process behind it all. 😂
